11.5 Corner chamfering, (G39)
Function G39 may be used to insert a chamfer of a particular size without having to calculate
the intersection points.
Programming
The chamfer definition must be programmed between the two paths that define the corner
to be chamfered. These paths may be linear and/or circular.
The programming format is "G39 I<size>", where the size value is programmed in millimeters
or in inches, depending on which are the active units.
Considerations
The "I" value of the chamfer size remains active until another value is programmed, therefore,
it won't be necessary to program it in successive chamfering operations of the same size.
The "I" value of the chamfer size is also used by functions:
G36 (Corner rounding) as rounding radius.
G37 (Tangential entry) as entry radius.
G38 (Tangential exit) as exit radius.
This means that the chamfer size set in G39 will be the new value of the entry radius, exit
radius or rounding radius when programming one of these functions or vice versa.
